Sponsor's own description

Social prescribing is a way of understanding the things that are important to a person and then using these to find groups and resources in their local community that can help them meet their goals and understand their problems. Social prescribing can be used with people who have physical health problems, mental health problems, social problems such as loneliness or financial/housing problems. The Welsh Government has supported the creation of these social prescribing services across Wales. However, the evidence showing that social prescribing is a good way of improving a person's well-being and quality of life is not very strong. This project is an evaluation of a new social prescribing service delivered by British Red Cross in two areas in Wales. British Red Cross have made a new social prescribing service, where a link worker works with a patient who has mild/moderate mental or emotional health problems, to understand their needs and set them goals for the future over 12 weeks of core support. The link worker will also help them find services in their local community that might help them achieve their goals. The study uses a waitlist trial, thus some participants will get to meet the link worker and have the intervention straight away, while others will have to wait for 20 working days. From this, the researchers can compare the people who had the intervention straight away with the people who had to wait. Scores on well-being and quality of life questionnaires will be used to see the effects of the intervention on participants.
